"because I felt different" ..... Once we know we have no reason to feel different, along with understanding why we wanted to, that's half the battle done Billy. I'm 53, 11 years clean and yes, I remember The Six Million Dollar Man! 👍😁
Another inspiring video mate. 8 years younger than you, but my weapon was the same (stone, bobby-or A-Z). Am like the Tazmanian Devil after a glass of wine, dont know when to stop. Anyway, I've stopped it now. Clean and sober, 3 months. Just suffering from coming off the diazies. 2 months on, sleep is fked. Its difficult on ur own. You're videos make me reflect on things and motivate me, thankyou. Oh, love ye new ones about hidden history in Liverpool. I'm writing a novel set during the Great Famine and Joseph Williamson etc. You've showed me a lot that I didnt know, keep them ones coming when Spring Summer come. Liverpool is a city steeped in history, good and bad. People are missing out on they're city's culture and history, wether it be good or bad. Thanks Bill👍
I'm not from UK, but my eldest brother about your age He was v young when fighting Serbs during the war & although never injured, I believe the horrible things he witness is why he always struggled with addiction. Watching you has definitely help me understand. I would love him to watch you but his English is not good as mine. Thank you Billy, you one of the best - poz iz Dalmacije 🙋♀️🇭🇷❤️ 🇬🇧 HŽV UTFT
I was in B&H in 92-93, was a bad place to be, I struggled with addiction and trying still to stay clean. I was there in uk army, one of the first in... Part of the UN, useless being there really, all we were told to do was observe, while atrocities were being committed. Not all of us observed, though. There was our own lad's committing suicide, drinking themselves to death, shooting their own friends, lot's of anger amongst ourselves. I really hope your brother is doing OK. All the best.
If you change the language on your Google keyboard and then go down to the description on any of Billy's stuff and put the transcript on and he should be able to keep up with it. Hopefully 👍
I’ve been thinking and saying the same in the last few months, I’ve been on and off both crack and heroin for 25 and 22 years respectively. I’ll be 40 in less than 4 weeks time ( I hope I make it cos I’m being taken out for an Indian meal / buffet ) 😂 joking aside. Great content as always Billy lad, we know your authentic mate, and for those of us who know, we’re glad of the wider service your doing regarding helping the youth, discouraging gang culture and last but not least for the great content in your uploads. 💯👍 Take care, and big ups to your Joe, and Judder. 🙏
Hi Billy just started following you for the last month or so , am 42 n had same sort of life done way to much prison been drug n drink dependent since very young age am down to 2ml subby n been clean of everything else a month av tried rehab twice n don't think I was ready, would just like to say a big thank you your very inspirational,
Keep sharing Billy, I've never been an addict myself, but I came across your channel by chance and I was probably guilty of being someone who looked at addicts in a bad way. Your blog has certainly changed my opinion in a lot of ways and your message is brilliant.
For a bluenose your sound lad,regards to your Joe an judder (& your family)-well done Billy lad.-Everything I relate.your message is TRUE and POWERFUL.
Your telling of your memories just hit home hard with me Billy,I nearly followed your life except for in and out of prison..I did a few sentences but for the most part I was able to keep out.same life on the drugs but got myself out of that habitual lifestyle. Take care brother 🇬🇧👍
You speak so well Billy. All credit to you mate to be were you are today considering were you have come from and been through. You should be proud mate. 💙👍🏻
Your an open speaking man bill and god bless you now you are through it all your on the better side..really like your films and judder. Bless you and family mate
Growing up domestic violence hiding from the debt collectors teenage years football and friends and nana advice saved me. Become a young father stopped playing sport and became a alcoholic I’m sober now 50 this year and stating a coaching and mentoring course it’s never too late thanks bill always talk sense
We had a very similar childhood Billy I understand but its how you deal with every situation in life every choice you make has consequence in life I never went down your route I did have magic mushrooms and raved in the state with tabs but it affected me growing up I struggled mentally but I got there in the end im at a place in my life now were im grateful to have peace of mind and contentment no better feeling everything else is a bonus im 55 so prob watched same programmes 😂👍x
Hi billy,I used to live in L'pool since 1999 until 2004...I am from Serbia.....been wathcing your vidios for some time now.....L'pool isnt the same city as it used to be.....I'am Evertonian by the way....if you ever come to Serbia,please let me know,and you will be my guest.....all the best greetings from Serbia......
Had a similar upbringing Billy, 65 now and your stories are a REAL Picture of my life in Liverpool till l was 10 in norris Green, now live in east London. Tough times. My dad called it , BAREFOOT DAYS.. Keep up the great work .
Your drug taking past sounds exactly the same as mine how as a kid i was all about experimenting with different drugs i was that kid who wouldn't listen to older mates who said whatever you do dont try skag but i wouldn't listen id been alright so far with everything else id took, and my older friends were right i got hooked on heroine pretty quick and a 20 year battle with addiction began...so your story resonates with me bill and ya done good to come out the other end being able to tell your story not alot of people do
There is no-one more worthy than yourself Billy, what a journey you have had, and your passing on your knowledge and Are giving a positive message to the community. Absolute legend Billy, much love to you and Judder ❤❤xx
Bill people watch because it’s real life stuff Not bullshit or drama. Not got 50 thousand followers for nothing. Keep doing what you’re doing. Love ❤️ from Glasgow
Spot on with wat you say billy am 7 years clean this year from the drink its so hard to stay sobar every day and minute and hour keep up your good work mate 👍
Im alot older Billy , but my work background was mainly with young people in Care. My father was violent luckily my mother left him. Later my brother got into alcohol. He started smoking at 12 years some research shows that this can act as a gateway drug. He started drinking at 15 years of age. Back then you could leave school at 15 years of age. We were always focused on work. Growing up with your childhood experiences and being able to reflect so honestly and with great awareness takes some doing . You had an inner belief that you had some value and now you give back genuinely.. I think we need to get some support from the ground up. How about getting some contacts with the Mothers . You've probably thought of alot of things I would like to offer some support. I can identify with the competition between the various charities and the general attitude of self promotion We need to start a petition to get an initiative for New Start. In Liverpool. Regarding consequences sometimes difficult to appreciate future impacts. How can we as members of the Community come together lets not give up. Appreciate your sharing
Reflecting days gone by. How it takes you back in mind and spirit . I suppose when we contemplate our past it’s like looking back from the deepest part of our brain . It’s a story only you really knows and feels
Same here billy met a bird from believe it or not Kirkby…. At 19 never took brown before I new it I was fucked on it for 8 yrs got clean in 201 been with my sons they new it all they were only kids then now there big men jobs kids am a grandad 5 times got a Harley life is good because of will power an NA meetings haven’t been a meeting in 10 yrs but I no it’s there if necessary but recovery is daily stay humble an don’t be no fool……Lancaster castle was the rehab………am from L8.
L8 larr, I like some parts of L8, prinny ave and Belvedere by the park. There’s a lot of immigrants down there now though off lodge lane and Kingsley rd it’s radically different round them ways.
Fair play Billy, you open yourself up and share a lot. It is very important to do this and does certainly help many both young and old. You are spot on about people looking after number one, wether it big organisations or even individuals sharing under the pretext of helping others. Keep on the right path trying to make a difference and people can see the ones who are genuine and the chancers, prople gravitate to the real ones in the end i think.
Trauma as a child really affects you as an adult no doubt about it I've turned out good but only because I moved my self away from it all its affected how I love people for sure very hard to trust anyone afraid to show love incase its taken away its so sad really some things kids have to go through its awful
Bill my script is exactly the same as yours, those were dark days in the 80s, I had the father that had drug addicted sons, and he was worried sick and didn't have the tools to deal with the situation, so every other night you'd have to take the hiding of a lifetime. Mate, I had the same script for Hindley and the other nicks, and it was all because our city was left to die by the politicians, and that's a fact, we found out it was called "an orderly decline" So when something came along that could let you forget your troubles for the day, and you didn't have to worry about today until tomorrow, because that's just some other time, then it was no wonder the city was destroyed with smack and drink. Don't go looking for fault in yourself, it was politics that made you an addict. Maggie had the port security relaxed during those years, coincidence ? I think not. It was a tried and tested method in the States, smack was pushed into black ghettos, the same way it happened here, crack was different, that was an underground culture.
@@job2447 You said it mate, the people that never lived through it, would never understand how much hopelessness and depression thatcher and her cronies created for the youth in the north of England. Evil woman, with an evil pedophile cabinet.
I remember being 13 year old in Southport on holiday and smoke coming from Toxteth..Southport and Stanley Gardens and outdoor Lidos..magic days..had my first drink then
True words again I swam in these waters for years and lost them all thru addiction Clean now But what a waste of a life mate All the best to you and yours bill 👊
Absolutely ya dad contributed Billy, mines a waste of oxygen as well! He's a horrible b@stard in so many ways , I didnt use , but the anxiety is through the roof , my Brother did from an early age, I'll be forever grateful for a fantastic Mum , who I sadly lost in July 2022 😢 peace ✌ Billy 💙🇬🇧
I feel yer lad , I lost mine last Nov, it doesn't matter how old you are it's a killer, you only get one mar mate and once it's gone you've lost your safety net.🙏
@@job2447 aww thank you lovely, I'm a woman 😅 aww but it's all good, yeah 1 Mam and mine was a pure diamond 💎 I'm so sorry for your loss, it's just the worst ever isn't it son? Awww bless ya 🙏 and thank you so much for your message Xx
Some heavy ones on here today. I don't agree that those times you mention were a waste of time. They've led us here, it was the journey to who we are now and who we'll become in the future. If we come out of it better then maybe those times were a blessing disguised as an evil, useful times that forged us in fire. My beans on toast were marmite sandwiches with no butter. Just bread and marmite. Only God knows what my mother was thinking but those sandwiches made me hard as fuck. So rough with the smooth. 🤣 This video make me think, I like it Bill.. 💯🔥🧨
U got it right till you said mushies that was a bout 83 ,84. Me and my 2brothers shared the bath water and that was after my mum and then my sister funny but I never knew my dad get one unless we went to the swimming pool on Saturday or swimming in the river lune in summer.haha😂😂. I'm from Lancaster.
58 now, Billy from London, same here I never ever had any anything when a kid Police around every other day looking for my brother, who was a heroin addict in the 70s dad in pub but loved him, mum never worked who had 8 kids in a damp 2 bedroom flat, unfortunately I went down that route in life heroin for 10 years from age 18 in out prison Now, 29 years of drugs, thanks for sharing.
Anything that makes me feel different from sniffing gas to taking kit/booze today am 10 year sober and clean these days a get a better buzz passing on my experiences to the young mob keep it up Billy good stuff m8
I enjoy listening to your videos I can relate to homelike and getting second hand things ..I'm lucky I didn't get involved in drink or drugs .and admire you for ❤getting clean and helping others ..How's judder bless him xx
We had to rent a TV in the late 70s, you could change the channel if you stamped hard enough on the floor. I read a few quotes yesterday that you might find useful when talking to younger chaps. “Advice to the young: You don't have to listen to anybody. You can learn everything from your own personal experience. Of course, you will be at least 50 years old by the time you know what you need to know at 25.” - Thomas Sowell “The wise man does at once what the fool does finally” - Niccolò Machiavelli
Everyone was in the same boat in Liverpool in the 70’ & 80’ , then heroin hit the streets to decimate the City. The thing is we all had the same choices and some of us chose the wrong lifestyle.
We're all products of our environment Billy lad. Nature vs Nurture shapes us. Peer pressure, genetics and environment. I was 10 when I first smoked the draw. Sputnik, Black Rocky, Red Leb, Red Seal Black etc. At 12 i was smoking it daily, then it led to Mushrooms, Glue,Gas,Petrol or any solvent. That progressed to LSD, then in 90/91 the rave scene kicked in and Ecstasy and Whizz. Then at 20 in 96 i started on the Smack and Stone. Took me 18 years to stop. 10 years clean and proud. Keep the awareness going Bill. 👊❤
Im in the grip of addiction at the minute. Sniffing coke and I’ve lost my Mrs and kids and my job. I drink to excess because I don’t want to feel the pain of my consequences. It’s an awful cycle
Big ups Bill 💪 I know da feeling brother 🙏 your channel one of best out there keep up the goodwork,i hope da Juddernator is doing 👍 good big shout out from Sydney city Australia 🇦🇺
You talk more sense and concern for people rather than these who sit there and brag about being in prison and who they was with and what they saw I was in prison for the first time I saw things and people but I never speak about it and you don't much it's not your agenda so keep up the good work mate
Bill,I'm 53 mate I had a $6,000 000 man T -shirt😂😂😂 I WAS the remote control for me parents :lying on the floor beneath the thick blanket of Ciggies smoke ,getting a cushion thrown at me and being told to turn the telly over on a Saturday with the curtains closed watching grandstand 😂😂❤❤❤❤ how did we survive the 70s/80s😂😂
I took to drugs mainly because I wasn’t happy being me simple as that. Got onto it all in the 90,s as you can imagine! 50 years old now and as happy as a pig in shit 😂😂 But go to that dark hole and it’s a long way back, but it can be done if you really want too!
A strong opinion based on our upbringing is the main reason for rebellious actions are not being brought up surrounded by love. Our Father figures should set the example not destroy our personality & wellbeing. Hence, we fall into the trap of addiction, etc. My relationship with my dad was a repeat of generations past. Simply, l was never good enough & was regularly put down. Love you, Billy & thanks for your genuine message.

Don't go looking for fault in yourself, it was politics that made you an addict. Maggie had the port security relaxed during those years, coincidence ?
I think not. It was a tried and tested method in the States, smack was pushed into black ghettos, the same way it happened here, crack was different, that was an underground culture.
That's why we all relate on these channels we are the lost generations that were literally thrown on the scrapheap of Thatchers Britain.

that mate. It's not easy putting yourself out there likeThank you for that
Bill you spoke a hell of alot of commonsense there.
We had to rent a TV in the late 70s, you could change the channel if you stamped hard enough on the floor.
I read a few quotes yesterday that you might find useful when talking to younger chaps.
“Advice to the young: You don't have to listen to anybody. You can learn everything from your own personal experience. Of course, you will be at least 50 years old by the time you know what you need to know at 25.” - Thomas Sowell
“The wise man does at once what the fool does finally” - Niccolò Machiavelli
Everyone was in the same boat in Liverpool in the 70’ & 80’ , then heroin hit the streets to decimate the City. The thing is we all had the same choices and some of us chose the wrong lifestyle.
We're all products of our environment Billy lad.
Nature vs Nurture shapes us.
Peer pressure, genetics and environment.
I was 10 when I first smoked the draw. Sputnik, Black Rocky, Red Leb, Red Seal Black etc.
At 12 i was smoking it daily, then it led to Mushrooms, Glue,Gas,Petrol or any solvent.
That progressed to LSD, then in 90/91 the rave scene kicked in and Ecstasy and Whizz.
Then at 20 in 96 i started on the Smack and Stone.
Took me 18 years to stop.
10 years clean and proud.
Keep the awareness going Bill. 👊❤
Or a Frankie goes to Hollywood t-shirt saying relax lol
What a good caring man..
❤️
Only real man on the web good luck fella
Im in the grip of addiction at the minute. Sniffing coke and I’ve lost my Mrs and kids and my job. I drink to excess because I don’t want to feel the pain of my consequences. It’s an awful cycle
You didn't stand a chance Billy son.
Keep up the good work Bill bang on as always 👌 👍
Back in the 80's was really hard dont know how my mother did it really they don't know how lucky they are now. As bad as it was i have great memories.
And that Billy lad is why I subscribed to your channel
Says it as it is , from another man who’s has similarities in life to yourself
👏👏
Big ups Bill 💪 I know da feeling brother 🙏 your channel one of best out there keep up the goodwork,i hope da Juddernator is doing 👍 good big shout out from Sydney city Australia 🇦🇺
You talk more sense and concern for people rather than these who sit there and brag about being in prison and who they was with and what they saw I was in prison for the first time I saw things and people but I never speak about it and you don't much it's not your agenda so keep up the good work mate
Watching grandstand all day lol nightmare for any kid that one mate

Real as the come 💯
Was just wondering did you get blacklisted from going to Thailand mate?😊

I took to drugs mainly because I wasn’t happy being me simple as that.

Yer no what billy, God help all who got a addiction, trying there best, to fight the demons, loan sharks in faces of vulnerable, off the scale Billy,
❤ + Respect lad.
Is right Billy 👊
You have got the biggest following in this area of UA-cam.
A strong opinion based on our upbringing is the main reason for rebellious actions are not being brought up surrounded by love.
Our Father figures should set the example not destroy our personality & wellbeing. Hence, we fall into the trap of addiction, etc.
My relationship with my dad was a repeat of generations past. Simply, l was never good enough & was regularly put down. Love you, Billy & thanks for your genuine message.
How I can relate to this. It’s like looking in the mirror. 🙏
